10 of 17 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 4 inspections with 1 infraction recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality and Chemicals and toxic substances.

The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.

  • Pool and spa water qualityHigher risk

    For pools, spas and splash pads, inspectors test disinfectant levels, pH and water clarity, and check safety equipment. Water that is not properly treated can spread skin, ear and stomach infections.

    Recorded 7 times across 6 separate inspections, most recently on August 12, 2026. For example: Is the bacteriological quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?

  • Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk

    Pool chemicals such as chlorine and acid must be labelled, stored apart from each other and handled safely. Mixing them by mistake can release toxic gas, so storage and handling problems are treated seriously.

    Recorded once on October 8, 2024. For example: Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?

    • 07. Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (Non-Critical)?
      • Whirlpool volume: 2404 gallonsFlow rate: 65 gpmTherefore, turnover period = 37 minutesThis is an unsatisfactory turnover period. According to our records, this whirlpool was constructed in or around 2007, and therefore (based on the whirlpool's volume) must adhere to our standard of a 20-minute turnover rate. In order to achieve this, your flow rate should be approximately 120 gpm.
